Health Charities

One in three of us will get cancer and it’s the toughest thing most of us will ever face. If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, or a loved one has, you’ll want a team of people in your corner supporting you every step of the way. Macmillan provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care.

Youthhealthtalk enables young people, their family and friends, and professionals such as doctors and teachers to understand young people's experiences of health, illness and life in general. The website feature real-life accounts of issues such as effect on work and education, social life and relationships, consulting health professionals and treatment.

Welcome to Summertown Group Practice

Statement of Purpose

Our vision is to provide high quality care to all our patients and to continually strive to improve our service to the community.

Our main surgery is in Summertown with others in Cutteslowe and Wolvercote. Between them they are open for consultations for a total of 140 hours each week including opportunities for early morning, late evening telephone consultations and surgeries and a Saturday morning surgery. Out of normal opening hours you should call 111 if you require urgent health advice.

We are a group practice. Our team of GPs work together sharing information within the practice to enable you to see any GP. However, every patient has a named GP responsible for their care (if you do not know who your named GP is, please contact the health centre). We also run regular clinics covering a wide range of services.

Our practice area covers Summertown and North Oxford, including Wolvercote, Cutteslowe, Marston and Kidlington. It goes into the city centre as far as Beaumont Street. We also look after students at the University Colleges of Trinity, St Hugh’s, St Edmund Hall and St Antony’s and The Dragon School, St Edwards School and Summer Fields School.

BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION

Dr Dave Triffitt, Dr Siobhan Becker and Dr Sanjay Mehta are raising money for British Heart Foundation. They are taking part in the Blenheim triathlon on 4th June 2019.

The British Heart Foundation does a huge amount for patients with heart disease; they fund an enormous amount of research into heart disease and stroke, as well as providing invaluable support to patients and clinicians.

Dr Triffitt had surgery last year to replace his aortic valve; heart disease affects all of us, or someone we know, and we are very grateful for any support for this fantastic organisation. Please visit British Heart Foundation for more information.

Evening and weekend NHS appointments are now available in the new OxFed Evening and Weekend GP Clinics, located in Botley, Summertown and East Oxford, where you can consult with a NHS GP, practice nurse, or other health professional. Appointments are booked by calling our Practice reception who can advise if the service is suitable for your needs. For more information about opening times and clinic locations please see the OXFED website
